Review of 'Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Such beautiful poetry. It makes me want to drop everything and be one with nature.

MO's poetry is well-written, straight-forward, and occasionally moves me, e.g. her poems about her dogs, but I'm just not someone who is looking for poetry that's mostly about seeing God in the voice of a thrush.
